Tigers in Lipstick (Italian: '''Letti selvaggi''') is a 1979 Italian comedy film directed by Luigi Zampa, starring Ursula Andress, Laura Antonelli, Sylvia Kristel and Monica Vitti.[2] It was Zampa's final film. It is an anthology of 8 unrelated vignettes, each involving a very attractive woman. The four lead actresses star in two vignettes each.
A woman (Kristel) lures a man into her room for a mysterious purpose; a schoolboy gets a prostitute (Vitti) to pretend to be his mother at an interview with the school principal; a reporter's interview with a recent widow (Andress) takes an unusual turn; a woman (Antonelli) finds a permanent way to end her husband's jealousy; a woman (Kristel) finds her husband unenduringly boring; a woman (Vitti) tries to recover a stolen necklace she herself just stole; a woman (Andress) causes traffic accidents by seductively distracting male drivers; a shy orchestra conductor has his tryst with a businesswoman (Antonelli) constantly interrupted.
